If you want to measure the entropy (statistical approach) for a particular
signal frequency without using GLCM (Grey Level Co-occurence Matrix), as
best as I know, it should be a new definition of entropy (texture analysis
second order). Even though it might be derived from first order statistical
approach, I don't have any idea about what information that you want to
extract from FFT result so you could obtain the entropy information. I
suggest you to use the Gabor filter if you want to obtain the statistical
information for a particular signal frequency.
